About Advanced Color Control

Advanced Color Control is an After Effects plugin that relocates the color properties from the Color Picker dialog to the Effects & Controls panel. Users can animate these properties or drive them with expressions. The plugin supports three color models—HSB (Hue Saturation Brightness), HSL (Hue Saturation Lightness) and RGB (Red Green Blue)—each offering two operation modes: Values Control Color (slider‑driven) and Color Controls Values (color‑driven with updated values). It also automates the creation of controls with customization options and provides a concise one‑liner interface with labeled elements. Compatibility spans After Effects CC through the 2024 release.
